Palmer Speaker Simulator

This is a rare, original 70’s, Palmer Speaker simulator; highly sought after for many years before the company recently released a reissue model.

I picked this one up on e-bay a few years ago and I use it to plug my Cornford Harlequin or VSQ65 directly into my computer so as not to disturb the neighbours unduly when I’m recording demos for sessions (these takes occasionally make it on to the original recording). After the demo recordings have been made, I mic up the amp for the final takes and let the neighbours have it!
